Exercise Induced Pulmonary Hemorrhage, EIPH, in Horses
  by Robert N. Oglesby DVM

Introduction

Introduction » What Causes EIPH? » Do All Horses Bleed Following Strenuous Exercise? » Does EIPH Cause Reduced Performance » Furosemide » Evaluation » Treatment » More Info 

Exercise induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH) causes serious economic losses in the horse racing industry. Besides racing horses, jumpers, polo horses, barrel racing, pullers, and ropers can be effected. Endoscopic examination indicates that 40-90% of horses exhibit EIPH following sprint exercise, but the limitations of the endoscope prevent diagnosis in many horses and the actual incidence may approach 100%. This report contains information on what we know about EIPH and the effect furosemide (Lasix) has on EIPH and performance. Also, provided are links to related articles and summaries of recent scientific findings.
